An excellent expression of Grenache, this Yalumba Vine Vale rarely misses the mark. Of all the Grenache wines in the Yalumba range, this is my runaway favourite. Highlighted by pretty florals, delicious fruit and a glorious medium-bodied frame, just sit back, loosen the belt buckle and get comfy.
Sourced from two sites that were planted in 1929 and 1949, attractive scents of lavender and purple flowers set things alight. Waves of cherries, blueberries and mulberries cascade over one another with flashes of raspberry and raspberry rope. Ripples of meatiness, orange peel and a little lick of grape bubblegum all add veneers of pleasure. Delicately spiced, gee it's moreish and fabulously positioned as it seemingly floats about. Delicious!
Duck pancakes, dumplings, roast pork or simply the tonic needed after a long week at work, diversity is its best asset.
